Erik J. Wielenberg, Value and Virtue in a Godless Universe

Suppose there is no God. This supposition implies that human life is meaningless, that there are no moral obligations and hence people can do whatever they want, and that the notions of virtue and vice, left and wrong, and good and evil have no place in the universe. Erik J. Wielenberg believes this view to be utterly erroneous and, in this thought-provoking book, he explains the reasons why. He argues that, even if God does not exist, human life can still have meaning, humans do have moral obligations, and human virtue is still possible.

Wielenberg offers readers a cognent explanation of the ethical implications of naturalism--a view that denies the existence of the supernatural in human life. In his view virtue exists in a godless universe but it is significantly different from virtue in a Christian universe, and he develops naturalistic accounts of humility, charity, and hope. The overarching theme of Virtue and Value in a Godless Universe is what ethics might look like without God. Erik Wielenberg takes readers on an extraordinary tour of some of the central landmarks of this under-explored territory.

Anyone who needs an invisible sky daddy in order to have meaning in their life doesn't really have a life to begin with. The same goes for their needing an ISD to define their morality as well. We make our own meaning in life.

Just what makes you so smart Foub, its smartbutts like you who always seem to think you have to make stupid posts. This is not the place to post such idiotic comments such as yours. Your the one who needs to get a life.

I got a life, my own and thats the point, loser. Does your invisible sky daddy tell you that he loves you or does he tell you to kill the non-believers to earn his love? Those, like you, negate your humanity with such childish beliefs. You're nothing more than a retard.

Denies the existence of the supernatural in human life. Good and evil, left and wrong have no place in the universe. No God, no Satan, no angels no demons. I have these to say to these intellectual fools in their posh concrete jungle lecture halls. With technological gizmos giving anti God, anti religion, anti Christianity lectures; writing intellectual craps. And those from their cozy homes on their computer post ridicules, anti God, anti religion, anti Christianity comments. It's all so convenient. I say these, "Go into the real world, to places deep in voodoo and witchcrafts practices. (Not Harry Potty type) Places like Haiti and Ghana and Central Africa to name a few. Go and try messing up these peoples, insult and ridicule their beliefs and practices. See, if you'll not lose your mental faculty, or if you are alive to live through to another day when they cast their voodoo spells on you."
